A Note on Key Agreement and Non-Interactive Commitments

Alex Lombardi
Luke Schaeffer
Abstract

We observe that any key agreement protocol satisfying perfect completeness, regardless of its round complexity, can be used to construct a non-interactive commitment scheme. This observation simplifies the cryptographic assumptions required for some protocols that utilize non-interactive commitments and removes the need for ad-hoc constructions of non-interactive commitments from specific assumptions such as Learning with Errors.
